Martin Jarvis reads The Incredible Adventures of Professor Branestawm by Norman Hunter. Unbelievably, these tales were first published in 1933 and sound as if they'd been written today. Branestawm is the epitome of the mad professor, inventing a machine that gets you where you want to go before you've even left, a spring cleaning machine that doesn't quite work as intended, and all sorts of other things that will have 7 -11 year-olds hugging themselves with glee. Beautifully appropriate music, a Naxos signature, adds to the pleasure. - --Kati Nicholl, Daily Express
Eccentric, absent-minded inventor Professor Branestawm, with three or four glasses stacked up over his bald head (and he still can't find them) embarks on a series of adventures with his friend Colonel Dedshott. Various machines are invented: a time travel machine, a device to capture and tie up burglars, and a spring cleaning machine. Inevitably, something goes wrong and Professor Branestawm is again in a pickle, exasperating his housekeeper Mrs Flittersnoop and delighting us.
